Service Light Door open error
« on: September 16, 2023, 09:06:44 PM »
Hello Just got an igt slot and the top white light is blinking slow and the bottom orange light is blinking fast.  There is no errors on the lcd panel and already checked door switch if there is a way to bypass please let me know. Model and error pic attached - there is no wires going to the bill validator door switch if you know how to bypass that also would be great thank you

Can you show me a photo of your "already checked door switch" ?
What did you mean by saying that?
Exactly WHAT did you check?
I may be able to help, if you explain...Thanks!

The DBV door switch wires will be green....look behind bill box unit.
They may be hanging behind there, or tied against the left wall of the cabinet, under the pull handle mechanism.
See if the two green wire ends are tied/spliced together.

Thank you for your reply - the last guy jumped them poorly re spliced and that error is gone - I now am stuck with the white light (top) still blinking slow which indicates door closed tilt - my battery is dead on the board so have a new one coming tomorrow - both of the optical sensors are jumped by me as well

Please see attached photos thx Tim

When you replace the MPU battery, the codes should clear simply by closing the door.

Forget about the light for the moment. What does the machine do or not do when you turn it on? Is there anything in the LED displays on the front of the machine?

12 is low battery. You need to open/close door to clear, can't just leave it bypassed in closed state.

Ok hit reset and it dinged but came back again

Have a clear ram chip coming but have another issue

Both of my starred fs-2 so I replaced both now the top and belly lights work but not the reels

There is no spot for a starter on the reel glass just the ballast which looks like it is wired to the top

Does the top need a more powerful starter / have you seen this configuration before

Thanks again for all your help Tim

Well the memory clear chip worked and the reels initiate as they should but still have the dang blinking orange light saying the cash door is open do you have a wiring diagram so I can narrow down what harness is controlling the cash door - I jumped the green wires and that worked for about 5 minutes

Then back to blinking thx Tim

It's possible, although not terribly likely, that it's blinking to indicate that the drop door is open, but before we go down that path, have you tried playing a paid game or two? On most machines that segment of the candle will blink after the door has been closed until the next paid game is completed. Then it will stop blinking.

Hello I am unable to play a paid game - coins go drop through and bill acceptor does not take bills

On the self test the drop door is functioning as it should but yet the light continues to blink and not let me play

I am able to play with “service credits” but I am dumbfounded why it still is blinking

Bill receptor worked fine in self test also - is there a way to bypass the coin comparer thing?

The green light has never come on that unit.

Thank you for your help Tim

The green LED light does not come on the coin comparator until the door optics are closed.


I don't understand what you're saying here...>>>

"...I am unable to play a paid game - coins go drop through and..."

Where do the inserted coins go?
Into the coin tray, the coin hopper, or thru the drop hole in the bottom of the cabinet?

When you insert a coin, does the "Coin Accepted" lamp light up?

If you want to sort of bypass the coin comparitor, open the door, pull it off of the plastic clips, turn it around and you will see a "rake".
Stick a folded piece of paper between the rake and the body of the coin comparitor to prop the rake upwards so it doesn't fall into the hole.
Turn it around and re-install it back onto the plastic clips, close the door.
Now any coin that fits into the slot on the deck will go thru.

Hello,

The problem is with the candle light on it will not go into “live” mode

So coins go right through to tray / when on live mode I assume that’s when the “insert coin”

And green coin comparer lights come on

Frustrating I emailed IGT as well but haven’t heard back

Thank you for all your help Tim

I would not hold your breath waiting for IGT to respond to your query.
First off they did not sell you the machine, and you are not paying for support.

Secondly the S+ series of equipment left all of the major casinos in the early 90s. They don't support the S+ series any more.
- You may still find one around in a casino that is totally coin operated as a nostalgia piece but then you might find an old Mills (mechanical) on display as well.

Thirdly they consider slot information as restricted to Casino Employees (no matter how old it is)  - if they ever get back to you the first question you will be asked is what is your casino affiliation.
Assuming you make something up, Next they will ask for your badge number and will want to verify that you work for that Casino and you work for their slot department and the known slot supervisor allows you to have this info. Once again - don't hold your breath.

This forum is your last vestige for hope for old machines. This forum is run by home enthusiasts on a total volunteer basis. Please respect the people that reach out and try and help.

To your last post - and what Stayoutofthebunker replied to you. The coin comparator light will NOT come on. It blinks on for a brief moment when the door is closed and a coin is passing. You will never ever see it unless you mount a camera on the inside with some kind of slow motion photography setting.

The candle flashing is an error code that indicates that your door is open.
When the door is closed you will see a lamp come on behind the reel glass that says insert coin.
Is this light on ??? you didn't answer Stayoutofthebunker's question.


If you open the door, press the white test button a couple of times, close the door. The Winner Paid and Credit displays should go blank for a few seconds and that light should come on.
Is this the behavior you see ??

SO... assuming that it does none of those things.......

There is a set of door optics - One mounted on the cabinet and the other on the door. They need to line up.
Do they ??

These use pulsing invisible (IR) light. Its a security feature that prevents a strong light fooling the system into thinking the door is closed.
Using a Cell Phone camera you should see the emitter fluttering - You can't see it with the naked eye.
You won't see the receiver do anything as its not emitting light .... DO you see the fluttering.

If you search this forum - door optics do go bad - its a common problem.

Secondly is the door to your Bill Can closed ?? usually when machines are sold to the home users they strip these internal locks and sometimes the door doesn't close properly. This may also generate this same error condition. I have one that I use a small piece of electrical tape to hold closed.

Please post back all of your observations
